Horrified by the dark future for himself he scried with the power of the Black Legendisc while searching for a way to curtail the Vok menace, Primus made the mistake of relating his vision to his sapient "pet" (read:slave) Primacron. Emboldened by the tale of his future glories, Primacron summoned the Assistant Corps in a bid for freedom. The apes succeeded in their righteous mission.
Later, Primacron summoned the Assistant Corp to distract Grimlock and Primus' other Primitives long enough for him to activate Neo Primus. They prevailed there too. Two for two, these little guys. Finale 1
Notes
- The Assistant Corps are a reference to Primacron's Assistant, the humiliating fate awaiting Primus in the universe to come.
- As usual in the Precursor World, this group is made up of themed repurposings, namely the various decoes of Apeface's Titans Return partner.
- What relationship, if any, they have to the character Ape X Arms from the original e-HOBBY Primus Vanguard stories remains unclear.
- The whistle Primacron uses to control his Assistant Corps originated in the chronologically-later story "Controverse," where it granted him control of the Sharkticons and other Primitive Transformers.
